Held

I hold her as she leans back into me, standing there on the gazabo, among the lilacs, flowers and willows by the lake in the afternoon sun, as we watch geese come winging across the gleaming water, glide in a line and swoop to land in a spray of silver and gold, gaggling, as we gaze, held there in the perfumed light.
